After you learn how to make decorative bows you will then need some ideas on how you can use your decorative bow. Decorative bows and gift bows are great additions to any present, package, basket, or vase. Try adding your decorative bow to the handle of a basket and then filling the basket with all kinds of goodies. You can even make a decorative bow using ribbon that will coordinate with the theme of your basket.

Decorative bows are a great touch to a hand-made item you are giving as a gift. For example, you can place a decorative bow around a ceramic vase or a framed piece of artwork or framed photo. You can even wrap the gift first and then place your decorative bow on the outside of the wrapped package.

I also like to use decorative bows as part of the gift itself. Try creating a beautiful centerpiece with items you can find in the craft store. Then add bows throughout and finish off with pillar candles; you can even place decorative bows at the base of the candle. Another way to use decorative bows as part of a gift would be to create a wreath (or even buy a ready made plain wreath at the craft store) and then decorate it with ribbon wrapped around the wreath with decorative bows (one or even a few) to jazz it up.

People just love hand-made items to show that you put time into making their gift for them. Decorative bows are a great way to use some beautiful ribbon and just a few other supplies to create a gorgeous decoration for any gift. Add that special touch to your gift by finishing it off with decorative bows.

Wouldn’t it be great to be able to make hair bows for every holiday for your little girl? Luckily it is very easy to do. Craft stores offer a large variety of ribbon before every major holiday and for every season. You can also find other colors, patterns, and designs of ribbon to make hair bows for sporting events, new babies, graduations, birthdays, and just about anything you can think of. Take a minute to walk through the ribbon aisle at your local craft store; well, it might take you more than a minute because there are so many beautiful choices. Now you have an idea of the various types of ribbon available to make hair bows for any occasion you might have over the course of a year.

The next thing I recommend would be to walk down the button embellishment aisle where you can find all types of buttons in the shapes of various objects, characters, and letters. These are perfect ways to easily embellish your hair bows for the holidays after you make hair bows. Also, just before a major holiday, the craft stores will have extra embellishments for sale for that holiday. Of course the prices will be significantly lower just after the holiday ends, so if you are planning to make hair bows the following year as well, then would be a good time to pick up some extra embellishments when you make hair bows all year-round.

As you can see, with a little creativity and planning at the craft store, you will find it very easy to make hair bows for any and all occasions. Your little girl will certainly enjoy having a fun accessory for every occasion when you make her a hair bow for each holiday and special day. Hair bows for any occasion are also a great gift. For our wedding this past October, we gave our three flower girls a beautiful hand-made hair bow that they got to wear for the wedding and then keep. It was certainly a big hit to make a wedding party hair bow and give three girls the gift of beautiful hair bows.

Have you ever wanted to make a hair bow but were overwhelmed with the many choices of ribbon at the craft store and did not know where to start? It’s true, there are tons and tons of beautiful ribbon waiting to be taken off the roll and turned into something magical such as a hair bow! However this can be overwhelming if you don’t know where to start after you decide to make a hair bow. I suggest that you take a few outfits out of the closet or drawer that you want to make a hair bow to go with. Then from there you can determine coordinating colors of ribbon that would look nice with the outfit. This makes things much easier when you want to make a hair bow because you will already have an outfit in mind for your daughter to wear and you can easily pick out ribbon.

Also, you will be able to save a lot of money when you chose to make a hair bow because ribbon and the other basic materials to make a hair bow are not that expensive. Pre-made hair bows that you can buy at the store to match outfits can cost up to $15.00 but you can make hair bows for a whole lot less money.

You might even be able to earn money when you make a hair bow too! I have seen many women who started to just make hair bows for their children but then found out that so many others wanted the hair bows too that they began to help their friends by showing them how to make a hair bow or even just getting paid to make a hair bow for them.

You can make a hair bow to match any outfit; it is really simple if you just take the time to decide which outfit you want to make a hair bow for and then find coordinating ribbon at the craft store. This is very easy to do because there are many options of ribbon colors and patterns available so I am sure you can find something that will go well with the outfit of your choice and will save you a lot of money when you make a hair bow.

Here’s a list of great ways to use the many decorative bows you can make with all kinds of seasonal ribbon available at craft stores. Remember, you can make the same decorative bows they sell in craft stores for $7 to $70 with just a few dollars of ribbon. There are a bunch of great ways to use the bows you have made. Here are eight of my favorites:

1 – Use a decorative bow around the base of a pillar candle. (Be sure that candle flame doesn’t get close to ribbon as it burns down!)

2 – Use a decorative bow to add some fun to a gift basket.

3 – Use a decorative bow to give a car or bike as a gift. You can make really large bows that will work well for this.

4 – Use a decorative bow to dress up a wreath or tree for Christmas or other holidays.

5 – Use a decorative bow on a wrapped present, gift tin, or gift bag.

6 – Use a decorative bow in a centerpiece display for your table. Use ribbon that will coordinate with the season, meal being served, or even your fine china.

7 – Use a decorative bow to decorate a table for a craft fair, flea market, or yard sale.

8 – Use a decorative bow to create a beautiful fireplace display. Add pieces of greenery or other items to complete your display.

As you can see, there are many fun ways you can use decorative bows once you learn how to make bows. Be creative! I’m sure you can think of even more ways to use your home-made decorative bows once you see all the wonderful ribbon available at the craft store. Also take a look at the pre-made bows they sell in the store to get a lot of ideas on decorative bows you can make and also ways that you can use them around your house and for the holidays. Save a lot of money by creating at home your own decorative bows!www.LearnHowToMakeHolidayBows.com

I have been so excited that I was able to learn how to make a bow! It has been a lot of fun to know that I can make a bow for my friend’s infant girls. What a great baby shower gift to give a personal hand-made present because you have learned how to make a bow. My favorite hair bows to make for infants and little girls would be the interchangeable hair bow headbands that can be used around an infant head to hold any type of small hair bow. I also learned how to make a bow called a trendy clip which is great for little girls with fine hair. It is a small bow that is on an alligator clip that stays really well in thin hair which so many little girls have. How great is it that I know how to make a bow that even girls with fine hair can wear; they certainly do not want to be left out when they see so many older girls wearing beautiful hair bows.

If you want to learn how to make a bow for an infant or little girl with fine hair, I would definitely suggest making an interchangeable hair bow headband or even a trendy clip. Those would be the two best hair bows to start with, until they are older and their hair can hold a larger bow. You do not want to have a hair bow that is too large for a little girl because it will be uncomfortable for them and they will want to constantly pull it out of their hair.

Have fun making hair bows and choosing all kinds of beautiful ribbon to make a bow with. There are so many different types of hair bows that you can make and it is so much fun once you know how to make a bow.

Once you learn how to make bows, you will definitely want to make bows instead of buying them at the store. There are so many great types of ribbon available at your local craft store that you can buy to make bows of all different styles. You can even find great deals in the dollar bins at the craft store and also clearance ribbon available throughout the year. When you make bows yourself you will certainly save a lot of money and you will have fun too. I was surprised that many of the already made bows from various types of holiday ribbon for sale at the craft store were priced up to $70.00 for one large bow. You could make bows for just a fraction of that cost. Even the more elaborate bows with a few different layers of various ribbon is something you could make instead of purchasing.

I love being able to make bows that I can use to decorate my house or give as gifts. I think it adds such a special personal touch when you can share that you know how to make bows and created one especially for them. The best part when you make bows is that you can pick out ribbon that is well suited to the person’s taste and likes. For example, my friend’s daughter loves flowers and has a May birthday. This is perfect because I am able to purchase all kinds of flower ribbon, especially during spring time, and then I can make bows for her. I’ll be making hair bows for her in a variety of styles with a bunch of different ribbon. Since I found some great decorative bow ribbon I’m going to make bows out of that and then add those bows to the outside of the wrapped box of hair bows. I even found some ribbon to make bows in the dollar bins so this will be a very reasonably priced gift and better yet, it will be home-made because I know how to make bows!
